3rd Jan – Fireman Sam

Ben and Ethan love to play a game of Fireman Sam. For those who don’t know, it is a TV show, where Fireman Sam is the hero and saves people in trouble…..

In this episode (game) Ben is the poor boy in trouble. He has fallen down and calls for Fireman Sam to help him..tn_IMG_7819

Fireman Sam is a hero, he saved the poor boy in trouble.tn_IMG_7823Ben and Ethan love to play those sorts of re-enactment games. The also like to dress up in their costumes and play make believe games. Their imagination is starting to really bloom now. It is lovely to watch them play together now.

 

We have also rediscovered the sandpit. We haven’t used it in a while as the weather has been so rainy for about 6 weeks. We opened it and it’s a favourite again. The shade cloth that we erected a while back is fantastic. It was a very hot day, but under the shade in the sandpit was one of the coolest places around :)

Currently their favourite sandpit games are making their mummies build sandcastles, then stomping them down and digging holes and jumping in them. They dug a big hole, then stood near it, pretended the sand was really hot, danced on the spot saying “hot hot hot” then jumped in the hole….. repeat, repeat and repeat again.

They are at that age when the same repetitive game again and again is still funny on the 20th time!
